Lose Weight Naturally With These 4 Steps
Posted by Christian Sylvester at Mar 31st, 2009 in Nutrition
Aren’t you sick and tired of these fad diets and the ridiculous promises and claims that these magic pill companies put out there?
These companies are taking advantage of your problem by offering you a quick, yet very unhealthy alternative to the natural way that our bodies function.
Here’s what you need to do to have a life transformation. I have laid out 4 steps for you to follow. If you follow them, you will lose the pounds, your self esteem will be sky high, and your energy will naturally be way up.
1. Step number one is perhaps the most crucial. It’s the switching of your mindset from one of negativity to one of positive. If you are going to reach your weight loss goals, then I want you to focus on the future at least 15 minutes per day. Total focus.
Okay, here’s what I want you to do. Focus everyday for about 15 or twenty minutes. Preferably in the morning to start your day. Just make sure your in a positive mood. If you’re not, then you can’t do this exercise.
2. Now you need to get rid of those awful eating habits. It’s time to find a mentor or coach to help guide you along the way. Trust me when I tell you that it’s much easier this way. Find an author or a health coach on the internet that is into eating naturally is the way to go. They have been where you are and they can relate.
Switching to natural, healthy lifestyle is not easy at first. But after a little while you are going to love it. Your taste buds will adjust and you will feel fantastic.
3. You will now add some exercising to the mix. As with any new activity, you should inform your doctor. Let them know of your goals and how you’ve already starting eating natural foods. They will give a list of what exercises are best to start with.
Start slow. Do not go crazy in the beginning. Let your body get used to this new way of living. Go sign up at a local gym or health club, they have everything you need to perform your exercises. Plus I like the atmospere. I recommend starting with some aerobics. After a while, start adding on some weight training.
4. Sleep is also very important. I don’t really feel that this topic needs much explaining. I’ve heard some people who believe that their body is different and that it only needs 5 hours of sleep a night. Maybe so, but everyone else should try for at least 8 hours a night.
Remember too, that with the exercising that you will be doing, you should have no problem reaching 8 hours.
So there you are. The 4 steps to improving your health and your life as a whole. It’s up to you to implement the steps laid out for you here. The journey starts with that first step. Believe in yourself!

Regular health insurance for visitors to US is expensive, especially if she is in fairly good health and doesn't need much health-card. You may be better off getting a Travel Insurance coverage with sufficient deductable for her stay in the US.
Travel Insurance provides coverage for travel beteen a few days and months.
I actually have a nutrition book for my college course that has the basic requirements of all types of horses (foal, weanling, yearling, 2 yearold, maintanence, light work, moderate work, and heavy work). I dont have the book with me but I can answer the question later when I can get the book.
Alright I have my book: I am basing this off of a horse that is about 1000lbs.
DO NOT FEED YOUR HORSE MORE THAN 2.5 percent of his body weight. YOU WILL FOUNDER YOUR HORSE if you try to feed him more than about 1.5 percent of his body weight in grain. Besides he wont beable to eat that much anyway. Feeding your horse 5% of his body weight in grain and hay combined is WAY, let me express WAY too much food.
Here are my equine science class links for the powerpoint presentation: This slide shows the maximum percent body weight you should feed in both hay and concentrate and total for each specific type of horse.
feed consumption %BW
For Maintenance: Daily nutient requirements The diet should contain at least 16.4 Mcals of Deitary Energy, 656 grams of Crude Protein, 23 grams of Lysine, 20 grams of calcium, 14 grams of phosphorous, 7.5 grams of magnesium, and 25.0 grams of potassium. You should feed your horses 1.75 percent of their body weight in hay. Most of the nutrients are going to come out of the hay as that is going to be the bulk of the diet. So the concentate grain that is fed is just to finish meeing the requirements.
For a horse that is doing moderate work:
It needs 20.5 Mcals of dietary energy, 984 grams of crude protein, 34 grams of lysine, 30 grams of calcium, 21 grams of phosphorous, 11.3 grams of magnesium, and 37.4 grams of potassium.
For a pregnant mare:
At the very end of gestation she is going to need the most.
At 11 months gestation she needs:
19.7Mcal of dietary energy, 866 grams of crude protein, 30 grams of lysine, 37 grams of calcium, 28 grams of phosphorous, 9.4 grams of magnesium, and 31.5 grams of potassium.
For 9 and 10 months gestation she needs 18.2 Mcals of dietary energy (9 months) and 18.5 Mcals of dietary energy (10months) and 801 grams of Crude protein (9 months) and 815 g of crude protein (10 months). The rest of the numbers are about the same for the rest.
For lactating mares:
from foaling to 3 months.
28.3Mcals of dietary energy, 1427 grams of crude protein, 50 grams of lysine, 56 grams of calcium, 36 grams of phosphorous, 10.9 grams of magnesium and 46 grams of potassium.
From 3months to weaning: Requirements drop back.
24.3 Mcal of dietary energy, 1048 grams of crude protein, 37 grams of lysine, 36 grams of calcium, 22 grams of phosphorous, 8.6 grams of magnesium, and 33 grams of potassium.
These numbers are all based off of a horse that weighs about 1000lbs. Numbers will be slightly less if the horse weighs less and slightly more if the horse weighs more.
Feeds that have alot of energy in them would be:
corn, milo, dried distillers grains, oat middlings, groats, linseed meal (flaxseed), fish soluables, fish meal, poultry fat, meat and bone meal, sorghum silage, soybeans, and soybean meal, vegetable oil (can be added to grain), and thats all I can think of right now.
Hope this helps, I know its alot of numbers and stuff. I would try to balance out a ration for you but I'd need to have all of the information for the horse and it would take alittle bit of time, I have finals next week otherwise I would actually have time to do it.
gotta say…when it comes to my baby, people will be lucky to get near him/her even with a full nuclear decontamination suit……”overprotective MUCH?”….for sure :-/
